Recently witnessed on a Deutsche Bahn train: there was some guy talking
loudly on his mobile giving instructions to someone at the other end,
and as he said "have you understood all that?" another passenger nearby
shouted "No, can you repeat that again?" Which caused a bit of a laugh
at least. The guy making the call didn't seem to register.
